Fox McCloud is the main protagonist of the Star Fox series. He appears in both Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, and returns in Brawl as confirmed on November 3, 2006, the first day of the Nintendo World Tour. Little information has been released about Fox as of yet, but it is known that he will use his blaster as in the previous Smash Bros. games, which he now keeps out at all times, rather than drawing it to shoot and putting it away afterward. Whether this will affect his moveset is unknown. Fox's outfit in Brawl is similar, though not identical, to his Star Fox Command design.

Kirby:

Kirby is the star of the Kirby series, first appearing in Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy. Kirby appears in both the original Smash Bros. and Melee. Just like in his games, Kirby has the ability to inhale his opponents and copy an ability from them, as well as resemble them in appearance. This ability gives Kirby a wide range of possible moves. As seen in the Eł trailer, Kirby's "Super Smash" move is his "Cook" power from Kirby Super Star, which involves boiling enemies in a pot.

Link:

Link the protagonist of The Legend of Zelda series, is a legendary Hylian hero who appears in both previous Smash Bros. games. Link's swordplay is featured in the Eł trailer, as well as his Super Smash attack, in which he slashes at his opponent while he or she is trapped between two Triforces. Link appears in a more detailed and realistic fashion in Brawl, as he does in Twilight Princess. The Master Sword serves as Link's primary weapon in Brawl.

Mario:

Mario is Nintendo's official mascot as well as the star of his own series of games. He is one of the most well known video game characters, and is present in the first and second Smash Bros. games. Mario's signature fireball is shown in the Eł trailer, as well as his new Super Smash move, where he projects a massive blast of fire that moves across the entire stage.

Meta Knight:

Meta Knight is a recurring enemy of the Kirby series, and is the second of the series after Kirby to become a Super Smash Bros. fighter. In the trailer shown at Eł 2006, he can be seen performing quick sword slashes and blocking an attack with his cloak, which blends into the background. He is also shown jumping multiple times in midair, an ability held previously only by Kirby and Jigglypuff in the first two Smash Bros. games. During the Eł trailer, Meta Knight's wings only appear while he is jumping in midair. Meta Knight is also able to glide in air as shown in the Nintendo World trailer. His symbol is the same as Kirby's, a warpstar. As stated in his Toukouken, Brawl's director, Masahiro Sakurai, however, plans to make Meta Knight's fanfare more of a "rock version" of Kirby's.

Pikachu:

Pikachu is the famous and popular mascot in the Pokémon series. It became iconic in the Pokémon anime. Pikachu's first video game appearances were in Pokémon Red and Blue for the original Game Boy and then as the player's starting Pokémon in Pokémon Yellow for the Game Boy Color. Since then, it has been in every Pokémon video game made to date. Pikachu’s Super Smash Bros. attacks are based on its own Electric attacks and other physical attacks in the Pokémon series.

Pit (Kid Icarus):

Pit, the savior of the Kid Icarus series, head of the royal bodyguards for the goddess Palutena, makes his first playable appearance since the 1987 classic Kid Icarus & 1991's Game Boy game Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters. He is shown in the Eł trailer fighting again with the Sacred Bow of Palutena, which has the ability to separate into two short blades for close-range combat (a feature nonexistent in the Kid Icarus games). On Pit’s left arm rests a pair of glowing rings, which expand onto the Sacred Bow when he prepares to fire Light Arrows; the rings retract onto his arm after use. Pit is also shown in the trailer jumping multiple times midair as Meta Knight does. Pit’s symbol is a bow and arrow tilted at an angle.

Samus Aran:

Samus Aran is the heroine of the Metroid series. She returns in Brawl, this time in her Power Suit and as Zero Suit Samus, based on her unsuited form from Metroid: Zero Mission. The official Brawl website states that Samus will remove her Power Suit "under certain conditions", but the means of which have not been released. Samus's "Super Smash" move could be the massive laser blast she projects at Meta Knight and Pit in the Eł trailer - however, the aura surrounding Mario, Link and Kirby while they perform their super attacks is not present around Samus while she performs this attack. In the Eł and Nintendo World trailers, Zero Suit Samus is shown wielding a gun that can transform into a laser whip. In addition, Zero Suit Samus is shown performing acrobatic moves in the Nintendo World Trailer.

Wario:

Wario is the antithesis of Mario and is the star of the WarioWare, Inc. and Wario Land games. Brawl marks his first appearance in the series; he wears his biker costume from WarioWare, possibly to avoid confusion with Mario's yellow alternate color scheme. In the Eł trailer, Wario projects an atomic flatulence, tentatively called the "Wario Waft" by the official website. In The Nintendo World trailer, Wario is shown performing various dance moves inspired by WarioWare before attacking his opponents. Wario’s moves are shown to have very quick and exaggerated motions. His symbol is the letter "W".

Solid Snake:

Snake is the first third-party character to appear in a Super Smash Bros. game. He is the main protagonist of Konami’s Metal Gear franchise. Snake appears in Brawl as he does in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Sakurai states on the official website that Snake will use a variety of explosives, including rocket launchers, and fight hand-to-hand. Snake will also use his trademark cardboard box, which he is seen hiding in near the end of the Eł trailer. In the Nintendo World trailer, Snake is shown performing his classic punch-punch-spin kick combo, and using an RPG from his series. Snake's symbol is that of the FOX organization in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, which is also the logo of Kojima Productions.

Now Solid Snake must have shocked almost everyone right? Lol, it shocked me anyways...

But hey you know what else? i wanna know what you think would be a good idea for a stage/level in brawl...some kind of castle perhaps?

Also, who do you think should be an additional caracter...we all know about the rumours of Sonic now...but who else? possibly some more pokemon? you tell us!

Give me some of your views and opinions on the up and coming game! if you got a rumour/fact/interesting thing to say, then say it!

This thread is neither official, nor even original.
There are tons of threads asking what characters you would like to see in this game, and we really don't need more.
Also, please don't:
-Call your threads official when they are really not.
-Double post (even to bump).
